Today I learned that Indian samosas need to be cooked for 11mins on 200, not 7, as the box may say.

Today I learned how to make and edit movies and burn them on DVDs. Yay me!

I also learned that today, well today being at 1:30am, that you can't trust bitches who are easy. >=( And I learned how to make a hookah session last longer by fixing the coal and that once you start feeling the burning sensation in your throat that it's the coal you're inhaling already.

I learned that meditating by a pond can indeed be dangerous when a friend of yours happens to wander by, see you, and decide to push you INTO the pond.

Grrrr.. my clothes are in the dryer.

I learned that I need to go shopping for lighter clothing before my trip to Houston. It's currently 26 degrees there (celcius). That's almost too hot for me.

I learned a few things today:

Around here every store closes at six in the afternoon no matter what the door might say.

Many people think they can play the bass, but few can.

Drummers are nigh impossible to find if they have any ability to play at all.

Violence doesn't solve much, but what it does solve, it solves well.

Finally, sometimes the best way to vent is to just yell "F*** me sideways!"

Today I learned that high tensile steal nails are very strong, but very brittle. If they do break they can shoot off like a bullet. . . and my dad told me this after I'd just spent five minutes trying to hammer one flat so I didn't stab myself when I picked up the piece of wood.

I learned that DNA was originally thought to be triple helix. I didn't learn whether or not it is possible to have DNA that is more than double helix. Grr.
